SOSi

As we close another remarkable year, we pause to express our gratitude to our customers, partners, and the dedicated professionals who make our success possible. From all of us at SOSi, we wish you moments of joy, rest, and meaningful connections with those who matter most. Here's to a bright and prosperous 2025!

'Tis the season! From Reston to Wiesbaden, our SOSi family came together all over the world to celebrate the holidays in style. Whether enjoying festive treats in Sierra Vista, sharing laughs in El Paso, or making memories at our HQ holiday bash, these moments remind us that our greatest strength lies in our people and the bonds we share. Thank you to all our amazing team members who make SOSi not just a workplace, but a community. Here's to another year of collaboration, achievements, and holiday cheer! 🎄✨

Lighting up Sierra Vista! 🎄✨ Our team joined the festive fun at the 65th Annual Holiday Lights Parade with our National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation-themed float. From sharing treats with parade-goers to exchanging holiday cheer with our neighbors, we couldn't have asked for a better way to celebrate the season. A huge thank you to the Sierra Vista community for making this event truly magical!

SOSi was awarded the Operations and Maintenance Support Services (OMSS) contract by the U.S. Department of State, supporting the Coordinator of Afghan Relocation Efforts (CARE) in Doha, Qatar. Our team will provide comprehensive support services across over 2 million square feet of facilities, spanning approximately 518 acres. This vital mission aids in relocating U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, special immigrant visa applicants, and select Afghan refugees and their families eligible to relocate to the U.S. from Afghanistan. "This is a complex program aiding Afghan allies who risked their lives to help the U.S.," said Frank Helmick, SOSi Senior Vice President for Mission Operations. "Drawing on SOSi's extensive experience supporting large logistics, operations, maintenance, and stabilization activities in the Middle East and Southwest Asia, we will bring hands-on expertise and proven capabilities to the CARE mission."

Effectively managing multi-cloud costs has become a critical challenge for organizations looking to maintain their competitive edge while keeping expenses in check. SOSi CTO Kyle Fox recently shared his expertise with Network Computing, outlining a three-step approach to help organizations get costs under control: moving predictable workloads back on-premises when feasible; rearchitecting dynamic workloads with cost optimization in mind; and implementing continuous optimization through cross-functional teams. Fox emphasizes starting small: "It's best to start by operating within a single CSP and gradually add complexity over time," he said. This practical approach helps organizations build expertise while managing costs effectively.
